Radio Apps

[Sue7M3]

Anyone using any? So far I've tried:

Radio.com: Useless. Installs fine, runs fine, but the severe stuttering makes it useless.
ScannerRadio: Great if you enjoy listening to police scanners, ham radio, and the like. Runs fine, and the sound is clear.
TuneIn Radio:Works great. Lots of stations to choose from.
SirusXM: Useless. Installs fine, lets me log in (yes I am a subscriber) but just sits on "Checking for Updates" until you shut it down. It would annoy me, but I have it on my BlackBerry and it works perfectly. I am guessing for some reason they decided to lock out WiFi users and only allow 3G to use the app.

Pandora is my favorite, on both PCs and my Coby, unless I want to find a specific show, in which case I rely on TuneIn Radio. With the supplied earbuds, everything sounds GREAT!

i (ab)use my rhapsody to go subscription.. no commercials, no forced randomness
pandora is good for digging for those obscure folk metal bands that I've not heard yet.

TuneIn Radio FTW! Although somehow I lost my NOAA weather station preset the other night but all my other presets remained. Dunno

the Win Amp app does shouctcast streaming for many radio stations..works great on my droidX... has anyone tried it on the Kyros?.. i took my Coby back,or i would try it... i found a Archos101 for the same cost on craigslist...

I've only really tried the Pandora Radio app but it performs just great on my Kyros. Are there too many other apps running in the background? Have you tried a task killer?

Use both Pandora and TuneIn radio on my Kyros and both work great.

sorry still nothing. playlist is on the bottom left. anyone with the 7015 confirm? I thought I was blind and went through every screen and setting. even RTFM.

I use Last.fm. Same account streaming for my xboxes, psp, cell phone, desktop computer and netbook.

I like being able to keep the same playlists without constant editing.

The app works great on my Coby.

Where did you get Pandora. Not in the appslib and when I installed it from the website nothing gets installed, that I can find, yet if I go back the the website the button to install now says Installed.

TuneIn is great. Has saved me when away from tv coverage for live sport (Rugby Union if you must know) plenty of times. Just have the stations in favourites, fire it up (even on quite dodgy connections) and keep up with the score.
